He didn’t just call for relaxed standards, he said the whole idea of asbestos poisoning is a “mob-led conspiracy theory” and now the EPA had officially stopped studying it.
Saying “relaxed standards” makes Trump sound reasonable. Quote him.
Russia scratched his back, now he scratches theirs. Meanwhile US citizens will be dying. 😱😡
My uncle, who inhaled asbestos while building and repairing American submarines for 10 years, died from mesothelioma this year. He was only 54 and prior to his lungs becoming almost a solid tumorous mass he was still working and also reconnecting with his ex and only wife, the high school sweetheart love of his life. 54.
Ever heard of mesothelioma? No? It’s cause by asbestos. It’s cancer caused by asbestos. Asbestos that you may not only breath in on site but that you can also bring home on your clothes, shoes, etc to share unknowingly with your spouse, roommate, partner, children or to anyone else who comes into contact with anything that is contaminated. 54 years old. Want to know the survival rate of mesothelioma that is caused by asbestos? There isn’t much, if you even live long enough to see the diagnosis because mesothelioma is fatal. My uncle spent his last 8 months hurrying to get his affairs in order while fighting with insurance companies about pain medication because dying of cancer HURTS, about nebulizers because dying of lung cancer feels like you’re drowning on land, and about chemo, and wheelchairs, and anti-emetics and oxygen tanks and who would help him clean up his vomit that never stopped because he didn’t have the energy to even turn over. 54 years old and he found out he had cancer caused by asbestos because he worked on one of our military’s best weapons and was dead months later.
Mesothelioma is a cancer we know beyond a shadow of a doubt is caused by asbestos, it is terminal which means it is a guaranteed death sentence.
